Weather in May
Temperature
Twin, Mississippi, experiences a minor temperature shift with the start of May, with average high-temperatures moving from 78.6°F (25.9°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.9°F (29.4°C). An average nighttime temperature of 65.1°F (18.4°C) is observed during May.Heat index
The heat index value for May is computed to be a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
